Property Description
Historic Schoolhouse Reimagined: A One-of-a-Kind Westside Ventura Sanctuary!
Step into a piece of Ventura's living history. Originally constructed in the 1900s as a schoolhouse on the Westside of Ventura, this architectural gem was relocated to it's current location in the 1950s, where it served as a beloved neighborhood church for decades.
Today, it stands transformed—lovingly restored and reimagined by two renowned Southern California artists-creatives into a breathtaking residential sanctuary that fuses timeless character with modern coastal living.
Wrapped in original wood siding and crowned with a striking bell tower, the home offers over 1,700 sq ft of design-forward living space with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. Soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, and expansive bi-fold glass doors create a luminous, open-concept interior that flows effortlessly to a private side deck—perfect for alfresco dining, morning coffee, or golden-hour gatherings.
The curved, gallery-height walls offer a truly unique architectural moment, filled with light and creativity. The modern kitchen blends functionality with style, while the bathrooms offer a balance of contemporary convenience and vintage charm—including a freestanding clawfoot tub. Ample storage for surfboards, bikes, and outdoor gear makes this home not just beautiful but deeply livable.
Set in the heart of Ventura's historic Westside, you're just moments from downtown, the beach, bike paths, and hiking trails. Whether you're drawn by its story, soul, or simply its style, this home is a rare offering—inviting, inspiring, and unlike anything else on the market.
